Actually, I have recurring goofs: 1. I chronically spill liquid cement. I've tried using a wide base holder. Still manage to knock it over. [:-^] 2. Just this weekend I was painting the body of a skeleton log car using a bottle of brown acrylic paint, the kind you get at Wal-Mart in the craft section (cheap[49 cents], lots of colors, highly recommend them), while sitting on my blue couch in the living room, sorta watching a movie. Like a moron I set the bottle next to me, on the cushion, against my leg, with the top off. About a minute later as I was gluing a cross beam to the body, I remembered the paint bottle. To my absolute joy I discovered that it had tipped, of course, and emptied it's contents (yes it was full. Just bought it that day), onto the cushion [D)]. Fortunately, it was acrylic, and most of it came out, and what didn't isn't visible. 3. glued my fingers with CA to all kinds of assorted objects (styrene, metal castings, other fingers).[xx(] I think my wife constantly alternates between sheer laughter and frustration over her clutzy husband trying to build an empire composed of itty bitty pieces that require stuff that sticks, stains, and stinks, built around two electrified rails.
